WWE star Trick Williams revealed that he was initially friendzoned by a female wrestler within the organization. The 31-year-old, who recently advanced to the main roster, is preparing to compete in the Elimination Chamber match to earn a shot at the WWE Undisputed Championship. Despite rumors linking him romantically to fellow WWE talent Lash Legend, Williams admitted their relationship did not start smoothly.
Both Williams and his fiancée Lash Legend rose from NXT to the SmackDown brand around the same time, yet they had not featured together on the show. When the couple appeared in an interview with SPORTbible, they played a game called ‘Agree to Disagree,’ which led to Williams confessing his initial unsuccessful attempt to initiate their relationship.
How Trick Williams’s First Approach to Lash Legend Unfolded
Williams described a moment when he intended to deliver a confident opening line but found himself unable to speak as planned. Seeing Lash Legend exit her Mercedes-Benz, he approached her with a carefully prepared promo in mind, but when the time came, his words failed him.
“So, I see her, she’s getting out of her Mercedes-Benz and everything. So I walk up and say, I don’t know what happens, like, as soon as I got to her, I had, like, this great promo in my head that I was gonna drop on her, but as soon as the moment of truth happened, like, no words was coming out,” he said.
After the awkward encounter, Williams addressed the circulating rumors about their pairing and suggested they consider becoming a couple. However, Lash Legend quickly put him in the friend zone, clarifying their relationship dynamics at that time.
“I was like, ‘So, yo Lash, I don’t know if everybody else saying it, but you and me together good.’ And then she friend-zoned me so quick. She was like, ‘Yeah, I heard people saying that, but nah you my homie for real,'” he added.
The couple eventually developed a romantic relationship, culminating in their engagement in November of the previous year.
